Scenery - Traffic cones 28mm
« on: September 19, 2014, 04:56:58 PM »



Hi
i was shopping in Home bargains and found a pack of COLORGOMIZ  erasers. They contained the above pictured traffic cones and motorbike for 29p. Whatever they're made from may not take paint ,but i will experiment this weekend . However the cones don't need painting and they're a great deal at  two for 29p.  You also get an American style traffic light and a comic VW bug.
The figures used for scale are a Zombicide runner and a Copplestone Future Warrior.

Hope some of you guys find this useful.
cheers
Dex

If it does not take paint, try glazing the surface with superglue.  That should harden it up and give the paint something to stick to.  Good find BTW.

Good find. The real white stripe on the cones is reflective tape. Maybe a thin strip of paper would do?
